Osaki ni Shitsurei Shimasu
Today I would like to introduce a useful phrase that you can use when going home before your boss or colleagues leave.
It is osaki ni shitsurei shimasu (お先に失礼します).
Since osaki (お先) means "first/early," shitsurei (失礼) means "rudeness," and shimasu (します) is a polite expression of "do."
Here, osaki implies that you go home (or do something) before someone.
That is to say, this phrase can be interpreted as "I am going to do a rude action of going home before you, please forgive me."

お先に失礼します
今日は、職場などで上司や同僚よりも先に帰るときに使えるフレーズを紹介します。
それは「お先に失礼します」です。
「お先」は "first/ahead"、「失礼」は "rudeness" を意味し、「します」は "do" の丁寧表現です。
ここで、「お先」は「先に帰ること（もしくは先に何かをすること）」を意味します。
すなわちこのフレーズは、「皆さまより先に帰るという礼儀に欠けた行為を行います（このような行為をどうかお許しください）」ということを表しているというわけです。
